The "Hilltop Service Station" in 1938. On the left is Loyd Wilson and on the right is Jim Jackson. Loyd owned and operated the "Hilltop" and Jim worked for Loyd until he left for the Pennsylvania Railroad about 1941. The "Hilltop" was located on Rte 22  where Donohues Hilltop Supply  is now situated and was one of the first service stations that catered to the early over -the-road truckers that traveled to and from the Pittsburgh PA area. There was a small restaurant added and bunkrooms were placed in the basement for overnight stays by the drivers. The Trailmobile Trailer company and Mack truck transport drivers made frequent stops here and after returning from the second World War, Loyd Wilson opened a Mack truck sales and service center in Cambridge.  Loyd later went on to sell International trucks at his Cambridge business.  Jim Jackson returned to Cambridge after the war and worked for the Pennsylvania Railroad until his death in 1967. The pumps are Erie clock faces and the brand of gasoline is  "Cities Service." The gas pump globes are lettered " KoolMotor."

The old building was torn down in 1998 and the new building for Donohues   Hilltop Supply  (makers of ice)  was erected on its site. A photo album was kept of all the old trucks and drivers and these will be entered in a special section at a later date. Thanks for stopping by!
